智利成功超越泰国、越南，成为2016年我国最大的鲜果供应国。
Chile became China's leading supplier of fresh fruits in 2016, overtaking Thailand and Vietnam.
《时代评论者报》援引智利出口推广机构ProChile的数据称，去年智利对华出口价值12亿美元的鲜果，其中以樱桃为主。
Chile exported $1.2 billion of fresh fruit, mainly cherries, to China last year, the La Tercera reported, citing data from Chile's export promotion agency ProChile.
泰国以11.5亿美元的鲜果出口额位居第二，越南以6.35亿美元的出口额紧随其后。
Thailand ranked second place, with $1.15 billion in fruit exports, followed by Vietnam, with $635 million.
尽管去年智利对外出口总额下降了3.7%，其对中国市场的鲜果出口额却同比增长了23%。
Despite a 3.7% decline in national exports overall, Chile's fresh fruit exports to the Chinese market grew 23% over 2015.
智利贸易促进会主任亚历杭德罗·布维尼奇表示：“在过去十年间，我们对中国的出口增长了18倍，从2007年的6500万美元增长到了2016年的12亿美元。”
"In the past 10 years, our exports to China have grown 18-fold, going from $65 million in 2007 to $1.2 billion in 2016," said Alejandro Buvinic, ProChile's director.
这一增长是在两国于2006年10月签署了自由贸易协定之后开始的。
That growth followed the signing of a free-trade agreement between the two countries in October 2006.
